US and Australian Exercises in Northern Territory see B-2 & B1-Bs

Further to my August 31, 2020 article "US B-2 Bombers Transit - Refuel Over Australia - MAP" the RAAF and USAF have publicised some of this activity via an informative Asia-Pacific Defence Reporter (APDR) article "US, Australia combine for exercises in Northern Territory with B1-Bs and B-2s" of September 3, 2020 at https://asiapacificdefencereporter.com/us-australia-combine-for-exercises-in-northern-territory-with-b1-bs-and-b-2s/ which states in part:

"United States Air Force B-1B Lancers and B-2 Spirit bombers have recently participated in a combined United States-Australia exercise in the Northern Territory. The B1-B and B-2 aircraft flew from Guam and Diego Garcia respectively, and operated over Delamere [Air Weapons Range], Bradshaw and Mount Bundey training areas during August [2020]. The activity saw the United States aircraft integrate with the Australian Army and US Marine Rotational Force – Darwin, providing a highly advanced training opportunity." 

[see Youtube above and here - 58 seconds in  https://youtu.be/nYNojCOqfbE?t=58s a B-2 is seen on bombing practice at Delamere range and then 2 B1-Bs.]

"The US aircraft exercised both live and inert munitions on the training areas allowing the Australian and US forces the opportunity to practice their skills in both traditional and modern forms of target location, strike confirmation, and damage assessment. While the B1-B and B-2 aircraft did not land in Australia, they were supported by US Air Force air-to-air refuelling aircraft that flew out of RAAF Base Darwin...."
